Frank Carone will leave chief of staff gig by the end of the year
Frank Carone, a former Brooklyn Bar Association president and the chief of staff for Mayor Eric Adams, confirmed this week that he will be stepping down from his current position as No. 2 in New York City by the end of the year.
“I will never be prouder of anything than what we’ve accomplished in the last 18 months,” Carone said in a statement. “From helping the mayor build the best group of public servants in the city’s history to playing a role in navigating us through the most difficult first few months any mayor has seen in decades, this time has been more fulfilling than I could possibly imagine.”
Carone, a former lawyer for the Brooklyn Democratic Party and an executive partner at Abrams Fensterman, is reportedly going to work on Adams’ 2025 re-election campaign. He told the New York Post that before he does that he’s planning on taking a long vacation with his family this January.
